And worth a listen in my opinion…..

Gretchen Peters – Hello Cruel World : I like this lady’s voice – it’s knowing and soulful, and with such a sweet delivery. And featuring some really well written material to show it off, you really can’t go wrong with Gretchen’s CD. Definitely worth a listen. Have an earful.

Mark May Band – Release My Soul : The former guitarist and vocalist for Dickey Betts and Great Southern has a winner here. Great players, great songs, and an amazing performance. Most of all, this release is just a lot of pumped up blues-rock infused fun! Enjoy with gusto.

Sessions With Caleb – An Artful Manner : This one had me moving as soon as I started listening…always a good sign. Caleb Armstrong has a way of weaving a funk tune into something more than just a good groove….this one is a really good listen. Get the phones.

As always, your comments on the above are welcome. – Jim
